PM Modi praises Chhaava

Vicky Kaushal, Rashmika Mandanna's Chhaava directed by Lakshman Utekar which showcased the heroics of the valour of Sambhaji Maharaj, son of Chhatrapati Shivaji Maharaj is going great guns at the box office.

In the meantime, the makers got a huge honor when PM Modi heaped praises on the film. He posted"Ye Maharashtra aur Mumbai hi hai jisne Marathi filmo ke saath saath, Hindi cinema ko ye unchai di hai. Aur in dino toh, Chhaava ki dhoom machi hui hai." (It is Maharashtra and Mumbai that have elevated Hindi cinema along with Marathi films. And these days, Chhaava is making waves.)

He added "Sambhaji Maharaj ke shaurya se, iss roop mein parichay, Shivaji Sawant ke Marathi upanyas ne hi karaya hai." (It is through Shivaji Sawant’s Marathi novel that we have been introduced to the valour of Sambhaji Maharaj in this form.)

Chhaava starred Rashmika Mandanna as Yesubai Bhonsale, Akshaye Khanna as Aurangzeb, Diana Penty as Zinat-un-Nissa Begum, Ashutosh Rana as Hambirrao Mohite, and Divya Dutta as Soyarabai.
